3 Close wae maker and rotate unit 180º to the left
(counterclockwise). Do not open for at least 1
1
2 minutes.
Opening the lid too soon will cause under-baked waes to
split, making them dicult to remove.
4 When the green light goes on again, rotate wae maker 180º
to the right (clockwise). Your waes should be done. If you
want them darker, close the lid and continue baking until the
desired color is achieved.
5 Remove waes from the grid using non-metallic utensils.
6 If additional baking is to be done, close wae maker to
retain heat. Always be sure the green light goes on again
before making more waes.
7 If you need to take a short break, close wae maker to
maintain heat. When you return to baking, you will notice
that the rst waes will bake faster because extra heat has
been allowed to build up.
8 Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is being
used by or near children.
9 When baking is complete, simply unplug the power cord
from wall outlet. Leave wae maker open to cool. Do not
clean until unit has cooled.
Wae Baking Tips
1 Cooking times may vary. Depending on your taste
preference, leave the wae in longer for darker, crispier
waes or shorter for light and uy waes. Dierent wae
batters will also cook up dierently.
2 When preparing wae batter, do not over mix or waes will
be tough. Stir batter only until large lumps of dry ingredients
disappear.
3 The optimal amount of batter to produce a full-shaped
wae, without overowing, will vary with dierent wae
batters. Pouring batter from a measuring cup will help you
gauge how much batter to use each time. Fill bottom grid
of wae maker with enough batter to cover peak areas of
the grid.
4 For more evenly shaped waes, spread thick batters to
outer edge of grid, using a heat proof rubber spatula or
other non-metallic utensil before closing lid.
5 Cake-based waes, such as the Chocolate Waes are more
tender than regular waes, and may require more care
when removing from wae maker. You may want to break
these waes into halves or quarters before removing. Use
a spatula to support waes when removing from the
wae maker.
6 To retain crispness, move baked waes to a wire cooling
rack to prevent steam from accumulating underneath.
7 When serving several waes at one time, keep waes
hot and crisp by placing on a rack in a preheated 200°F
oven until ready to serve.
8 Baked waes freeze well. Cool completely on wire rack.
Store in plastic freezer bag or in covered container,
separating waes with wax paper. Reheat frozen waes
in toaster oven, oven or toaster until hot and crisp.
